Eisenkot Gains Ground
Gadi Eisenkot, Israel’s former chief of staff and leader of the Yashar party, emerged as the leading contender within the opposition camp after the October 27 election. His party won 21 seats, compared with 27 for Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud. No bloc secured a majority: Netanyahu’s bloc won 53 seats and the opposition 48, while Arab parties won 19. Forming a government requires the support of 61 of the Knesset’s 120 members. Naftali Bennett announced his support for tasking Eisenkot with forming a government, but Eisenkot’s path to the premiership still depends on building a coalition—particularly on the position of the Arab parties.
